Looks nice. That manipulator reminds me of one from a very certain collaboration between a mathematical oddity and some very charged poultry.

Looks sliiickk; I wouldn't mind seeing a video or something of how that end effector works (although it works well, according to fin).
I'm also curious why the horizontal brace midway up the arm is so wide...

Hey that robot could play Triple Play and Rack 'n Roll
. Looks good, I wonder how well the manipulator works.. Do you have the height for the top goal??

I was just at Clarkson this morning, and I swear I saw something just like this, but I just can't put my finger on what it was...
But, on another unrelated note, I always wonder how Arefin figures that he is JVN V2

How is the manipulator designed to release the tubes onto the rack? (Not doubting that it can, just curious what method 1345 is going to use)

Tom BottiglieriIs it bad that I've seen that robot before?

Forgot to add-
I really like your manipulator.
We were thinking of going for the same thing, but we're still making mockups. Here are two questions we're thinking about as we run around carpeted areas pushing broom handles into innertubes:
1. If the method I described above is how you plan to release tubes, do you have any trouble with them sticking to the lance as you try to let go?
2. For picking up, we've realized that our lance has to be nearly touching the ground in order to drive under and innertube--otherwise it just gets stuck to it and starts depressing it. So to pick up we've essentially decided to drag our lance forward along the floor and coat the bottom with something slick to keep it from getting caught. Are you guys having similar problems or does the squashed pipe slide along the carpet okay?
